Program Details

If you have a passion for sports and adventure, this sports development volunteer program in Ghana is an excellent choice for you. Select from our diverse array of unique sports coaching activities available in Ghana.

Whether you are an avid sports enthusiast or a seasoned professional, we have a suitable project for you in Ghana! No prior experience is necessary; all that is required is a willingness to utilize sports to benefit others. Sports coaching volunteers engage in training, play, and become deeply involved in the community's daily life.

This volunteer opportunity in Ghana is ideal for gap years, summer vacations, student travel, and career breaks. Many children in Ghana lack access to quality coaching. You will collaborate with schools and community teams after school hours. Sports possess the remarkable ability to unite individuals, transcending cultural, racial, and religious boundaries.

Additionally, the Ghana sports coaching volunteer project facilitates essential educational workshops in subjects often overlooked in standard school curricula, such as recycling, nutrition, hygiene, and self-esteem. This initiative is enjoyable for anyone who enjoys working with children and youth, who are typically very eager to learn, play, and engage with volunteers.

Activities & Shift

Volunteers will collaborate with the coaches of the football team, which includes players from Under 12 to senior levels. It is recommended that volunteers bring their own football cleats and jerseys.
